    I got both the specific e-mail as well as the general one.

    If I log directly into my account from the Crew homepage, I see my 2019 invoice and tickets for upcoming home matches but nothing for 2018 playoffs, except a link

    that goes nowhere.

    When following the link in the email and even logged in to my account, I'm getting the general public price for my premier east section and not the member discount.

    So, I had to break down and call Shanee, my rep. She says with auto-renewal there is nothing to be done. I'll get my same seats and the invoice won't appear on my account manager page until the game is set in stone.

    Clear as mud from all the communication that I received. Par for the course.

    Yes, my original bench was replaced when they put in the chairs, renamed our generic section East Preferred and jacked up our prices. But I've had my seat, section 107 row 13 seat 1, since the stadium opened. I have no plans except to sit there until a new stadium opens.

    Formerly 106. I left after they jacked up the prices, and most of the longtime ST holders around me left. I miss that section.

    Mrs KG requested the West side--as the sun is not in your face--when we got our tickets.

    The sun sucks a majority of the season. My ticket is half what the VIP seats on the west side pay, so there is a trade off. Sunglasses, hat and sunscreen on my nose and neck are requirements most of the season.

    This time of year is the best as the sun is below the edge of the western stands before kickoff. I love a night game. Even with 7:30 kickoffs, we don't get a nigh game feel for most of the year.

    Baseball hat brim pulled low always solved the sun issue for me.

    Yo, don't forget that East Preferred-only entrance! Oh, wait, that stated benefit was never implemented? Carry on.

    I don't know where you've been going in all season, but I've been going in our side gate with nearly no wait.

    True, but remember it was supposed to be all-exclusive and stuff. I don't want to mingle with people like @Ch(Elsey) on the way into the stadium!

    Exactly! Hide from the people giving you a hard time about wearing a SC jersey!!

    Sadly, our Subaru Outback and Toyota minivan did not make the cut.

    Upgrade to a B Lot parking pass and the glory of the "private" entrance can be yours!

    No, no, no, I have been told that that gate is only for B LOT pass holders and East Preferred ticket holders (and now Acura drivers). This gate is not to be used by ANY other people. I will fight anyone who says differently (or retreat to the Wild Man's Leather and Lace ZZBoots panic room that resides below my east preferred seating location). They said it was for Only US, Damnit! and they never lie. The FO of this team has won awards and has a gilded history of doing right by their customers. Show me one instance when they haven't. I won't hold my breath.

    B lot is legit for getting out after games. Happiest mistake I made.

    Maybe this year. I had b lot tix for a couple years and it always seemed to take ages to get out. I just get general parking now and get out way faster.

    I’ve had it for 2 years now and most times I’m on the interstate within 10 of getting in the car.

    It has been poor in the past, this year it does seem to be moving more quickly. There are fewer cars and fewer in attendance though.

    I'm not sure if I give anyone credit for it besides those folks that aren't coming to the games any more.

    Things have changed personally for me in the last year, in a pretty significant way. A game on Oct 31 would present a pretty heart-breaking dilemma.
